Let me just say one thing - you do not understand how different Evernote staff seemingly work.
Developers, programmers, call them what you will, do not need users to tell them about changes in the OS etc because they themselves are in the know.
It is a normal part of their job life and vital to the smooth functioning of their own products. If Evernote had left their ivory tower habits long ago things would be a lot better. Or do you really expect page preview to be the equivalent to pdf export as it still is in the Win version of Evernote?
As for myself I could not care less as to whether Outlook clipping to Evernote is responsive or not because of the usually less than pleasing output results and why report to Evernote something they should be able to experience on their own?
If Mr Ian Small does his job well the overbearing excusing and definding mentality will no longer be needed.
BTW, real doctors are not nearly so dumb or helpless when it comes to determining physical causes of pain. Doctors who rely solely on the patient's self-diagnosis, apart from stuff like simple colds and suchlike have no place in modern medicine.

Me, too, can say that Outlook 365 (version 16.0.11231.20122), Win 10 1809 Build 17763.292) and Evernote currently 6.18 do not work well together. Beyond the lag the most worrying aspect to me is the rotten quality of notes through direct transfer from Outlook.
@gazumped
Outlook 365/2016 is part of the current Microsoft office suite, the standard office package used all over the globe. If Evernote have not got the means to pay for the annual subscription fee they should not even offer the add-on. Win 10 is the current OS and the only Win OS that Evernote needs to optimize for. Win 7 is in its final year of support and with hardware equipment well above Evernote and Win Office specs such lags have nothing to do with machines that are well maintained.
Of course, third-party add-ons are at a disadvantage so to speak. The developers do need to keep upbreast with changes.. Nothing new in that trade.
Why should users point to deficits that any developer could determine with minimum effort? A typical case, very recent was that one of the Evernote staff members was astounded to learn that an Evernote shortcut collided with a Win 10 shortcut. Whose fault? Mistakes do happen but the nerve to think Microsoft stole from Evernote is quite something.
Not for one moment do I really believe that Outlook clipping carries much weight with Evernote.

@DTLow
Nice to learn what Evernote is withholding its users. I do not even want to know how easy or difficult implementation would be. The chance of Evernote cocking it up is a very likely scenario.
However, as the topic is about granting third-party access to one's data I would say "do not ignore Google warnings" in such matters.

latest Microsoft support info re keyboard shortcuts (sorry, cannot override .DE localization) status as per 2018-12-31.
No, Microsoft did not hijack what Evernote thought was theirs, simply because the OS takes priority. Always.
Perhaps it would be a good idea if Evernote finally got to grips with Windows.

Well-known issue, one of the arch problems this application suffers from and one that is certainly not related to hardware issues.
All one can do is stop syncing at start-up. The Evernote server(s) are amongst the most sluggish and unresponsive of all data hosting servers one can come across these days.
So, do not blame your machine, just hope for improvement. All the complaints of notes lost and so on point to transmitting errors due to server overload.

@onatbas
with all due respect and very much appreciating the kind thought but I certainly would never authenticate any script hosted by GoDaddy on an insecure website, registered in Turkey.
Nothing personal, just a general concern.

@Prinz Bernhard
Actually I feel quite positive that the existing Google+ /.de community will find a place to settle soon. Not so sure that the few active members would really care to make the move across the pond.

@DTLow
Somehow I cannot quite make out what made you start this thread.
Not once can I recollect you being irratated or downright infuriated at bugs nor did you seem to accept the frequently made requests for improvement in the Evernote editor, amongst many other issues. Your assertations as to what you deem good or perfect in Evernote are no secret to regulars.
Now Mr. Ian Smith does want to invent the future and has seen the necessity for giving Evernote the inevitable overhaul pdq. The new CEO grasped the situation in next to no time and very understandably cannot promise new features just like that.
Nonetheless, complaints and whining did reach Evernote management.
Would be nice and I'm sure very much appreciated if you'd adjust to the new consumer-orientated attitude. After all, millions of unpaid accounts don't really count.

@DTLow yes, do so, by all means.
It is just that an awful lot of users cannot accept data corruption in database applications. Evernote is nothing more than a notetaking application with unpredictable performance and reliability under Windows and Android, in spite of state-of-the-art hardware.
All reputable software with widespread usage usually finds enough developers enhancing the original product. Evernote singularly failed to attract such people because the Evernote code is such a mess that nobody wants to meddle with it.

@DTLow
I am experienced Windows PC user and I am beginning to feel sorry for you.
If the internal engine of a note taking application is so poor that it cannot handle quality editing and output then it's time to replace it. Full stop.
You can cite any old alternatives to Evernote's editor but unless you get the picture what users tend to expect by now you will be one of the coffin nails that seals Evernote's fate. What was novel and outstanding 10 plus years ago just is not good enough anymore.
Evernote failed to meet European data protection legislation. As an experienced computer professional, you will no doubt be aware of the revenue Evernote is missing due to that.
BTW, all I have seemingly failed to communicate to you is that your personal satisfaction with Evernote's Mac versions is simply not representative.
The ratio of Mac to Win users (globally speaking) is approx. 1 :10.
It is up to Mr. Ian Small to assess the situation and decide what service Evernote can offer next year and beyond.
*I truly value the Evernote webclipper in conjunction with Chrome and Firefox on Windows. Evernote on Android is just pathetic because of inadequate stylus support.

@DTLow
Did you ever consider that your assessment of what users should expect from Evernote's editor left a ripe proportion of users with a feeling of frustration, if not to say profound annoyance?
The "Remember Everything" service is no longer unique to Evernote. Search engines made advances by leaps and bounds.
Of course, there is always the factor "you get what you pay for". However, 3 years ago there was a substanstial increase in subscription fees. Revamping the site and the logo instead of tackling core functions must have turned scores of premium users right livid.
No doubt, Evernote went into a downward spiral and retiring Mr. O'Neill was inevitable.
His setting the target at achieving positive cash figures for the financial year was deplorable. Considering staff cuts at all levels it just meant "sorry, cash is so low, we are working with a tight budget, we are not credit-worthy any more. If we cannot consolidate our financial status now, we are either up for sale or gone with the wind".
I too share the genuine hope that Ian Small is the right man who can sort out priorities. The policy of leaving customers in the dark failed beyond repair.
Personally I feel If Evernote cannot consolidate MacOS and WinOS versions pretty darn quick it will be mission failed.
